UN GGIM: Integration of worlds Statistics Mapping Remote Sensing Land Administration UN-GGIM and Land Administration and Management
UN GGIM aims at playing a leading role in setting the agenda for the development of global geospatial information and to promote its use to address key global challenges. It provides a forum to liaise and coordinate among Member States, and between Member States and international organizations. Expert Groups 1. United Nations Expert Group on the Integration of Statistical and Geospatial Information 2. The United Nations Expert Group on Land Administration and Management (UN-EG-LAM) Working Groups 1. Global Geodetic Reference Frame 2. Development of a Statement of Shared Principles for the Management of Geospatial Info 3. Global Map for Sustainable Development (GM4SD) 4. Trends in National Institutional Arrangements in Geospatial Information Management 5. Geospatial Information and Services for Disasters (WG-Disasters)
Objectives of UN-EG-LAM Play a leading role at the policy level by raising political awareness and highlighting the importance to decision makers of the need for timely and fit for purpose land administration and management and; Encourage the use of geospatial information tools and systems to improve the legal certainty of all citizens in the world with respect to the registration of the relation between people and land.

Functions UN-GE-LAM Provide a forum for coordination and dialogue among global experts from the land administration and geospatial communities with a view to advance the activities related to the administration and management, and strengthening the use of geospatial information for good land governance; Propose work plans, informed by broad global consultation, to address the main areas of focus identified by Member states while ensuring that there are no overlaps or duplication with other initiatives; Address governance, data management, institutional and technology adoption and sustainability issues related to the implementation and management of efficient land administration and management systems, and transparent, functioning land markets and; Undertake work that is able to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN indicator process and other areas as appropriate including, access to land, property rights, ownership, land degradation, rapid urbanization, and climate change, in coordination with other expert entities.
High Level Forum Addis Ababa
High Level Forum Addis Ababa. invite international development partners, nongovernmental organizations, the private sector and industry to take collective action to include a geospatial component in all of their sectoral projects they are funding in order to significantly improve geographic coverage of land administration and management systems, and the availability and accessibility of authoritative and up-to-date geospatial and land information necessary for good land governance ;
Conclusions In order to achieve the SDG s good geospatial information management and sound land administration are important prerequisites. It is the momentum is right for the challenging but feasible ambition to have land rights for the world. The objective of UN-GGIM (UN-EG-LAM) is to play a leading role at the policy level, by raising awareness and to encourage the use of geospatial information management for land administration purposes. The UN GGIM High Level Forum declaration is promising and ambitious. Conclusions
